Segments - Waste Derived Biogas Market by Raw Materials (Landfill Gas, Agricultural Waste, Sewage, and Industrial Wastewater), End-users (On-site Electricity Production, Transportation Fuel, and Municipal Electricity Production), and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2021 – 2028
The global waste derived biogas market size is anticipated to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, 2021-2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the increasing environmental awareness and demand for renewable energy resources.
Biogas is produced after organic materials that is animal and plant products are broken down by bacteria in an oxygen-free environment, a process called anaerobic digestion. It is a combination of gas, mainly carbon dioxide and methane. The biogas is produced from raw materials, including plant material, food waste, green waste, manure, agricultural waste, sewage, and municipal waste. Biogas is the renewable source of energy. Bacterial strains used in the production of waste derived biogas are sulfate-reducing bacteria and methanogens and the instrument anaerobic digester is used in the process. Waste derived biogas offers various benefits, such as utilization of waste, produces a circular economy as well as by product of process is used as a fertilizer.
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak had negative impact on the market. During the pandemic, emergency lockdown imposed by government bodies across the globe resulted in disruption of supply chain, less availability of raw material, and temporary shutdown of industries. Additionally, increase in demand–supply gap, price volatility, and government policies affected the production of waster derived biogas. The market is expected to recover soon with an uptrend operation due to subsiding the COVID cases gradually across the globe.

Based on raw materials, the global waste derived biogas market is divided into landfill gas, agricultural waste, sewage, and industrial wastewater. The agricultural waste segment is expected to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to increasing adoption of crop residues is used in the production of biogas, which is composed mainly of carbon dioxide and methane. Furthermore, the segment growth is further accelerated as the byproduct of biogas production is used as fertilizer in agriculture. However, the landfill gas segment is anticipated to expand at a substantial CAGR in the coming years owing to the landfills contain the same anaerobic bacterial strains which are present in a anaerobic digester for breakdown of organic materials to produce biogas.
On the basis of end-users, the market is segmented into on-site electricity production, transportation fuel, and municipal electricity production. The transportation fuel segment is anticipated to register a high CAGR in the projected timeline owing to reduced greenhouse gas emission in transportation sector. Moreover, rising government initiatives to promote biogas driven vehicles across the globe is driving the segment growth further. On the other hand, the on-site electricity production segment is anticipated to grow at robust growth rate in the near future attributed to the low cost & maintenance coupled with increase in energy prices.
In terms of region, the global waste derived biogas market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Europe is anticipated to constitute a key share of the market during the projected period owing to the awareness to adopt clean fuel, rising stringent emission norms, and increasing demand from end-use industries. However, the market of North America is anticipated to grow at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to the growing end-use industries including construction, automobile, and manufacturing and more than 2,000 working large biogas producing sites are present in the region.
The global waste derived biogas market has been segmented on the basis of
